The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

A line of reflection would need to be drawn as a line that bisects a vertex angle of the pentagon.

Explanation:

A line that bisects a vertex angle of a pentagon will be a line of symmetry within the pentagon. The pentagon can be "folded" through this line into two equal halves.

This imaginary line represents the center of the pentagon. A reflection through this line will carry the pentagon onto itself. This is due to the definition of line symmetry:

"A set of points has line symmetry if and only if there is a line, l, such that the reflection through l of each point in the set is also a point in the set."

Additionally, for any regular polygon, the number of lines of symmetry equals the number of sides.

This means that this line can be through any vertex angle of the polygon.

It seems that you have missed the necessary options to answer this question, but anyway, here is the answer. An imaginary line would need to be drawn at any angle to the center of the side opposite the angle to <span>reflect across an axis of symmetry so that a regular pentagon can carry onto itself.

A) what is 42%of 250? please explain the method......​
arsen [322]

Answer:

105

Step-by-step explanation:

What is 42% of 250?

Let's break this question down.

We have:

42% – A percent is a fraction out of 100. 100% being fully complete. We can express 42% as 42/100 or 0.42.

of – This symbolizes multiplication.

250 – This is our total.

Now let's set up an equation.

42% of 250

0.42 • 250 = ?

Now, multiply.

105

This is your answer.

42% of 250 is 105.

Hope this helps!

Find the distance points p (3,6) and q (7,3) to the nearest tenth?
Vladimir79 [104]
<h3>Answer: 5</h3>

=========================================================

One method is to plot the points P(3,6) and Q(7,3) on the same xy grid.  Plot a third point R at (3,3). See the diagram below.

A right triangle forms in which we can find the legs PR = 3 and RQ = 4. The hypotenuse is found through the pythagorean theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2

3^2+4^2 = c^2

9+16 = c^2

c^2 = 25

c = sqrt(25)

c = 5

This is the length of PQ

-----------------------------------

Or you can use the distance formula which is effectively using the pythagorean theorem just in a slightly different format (though it may not be obvious).

d = \text{Distance from P to Q}\\\\d = \sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(3-7)^2+(6-3)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-4)^2+(3)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{16+9}\\\\d = \sqrt{25}\\\\d = 5\\\\

FUNDRAISING A school is raising money by selling calendars for $20 each. Mrs. Hawkins promised a party to whichever of her Engli
____ [38]

Rj, this is the solution to question 19:

• 1st period class sold 60 calendars in total

,

• 2nd period class sold 123 calendars in total

We calculate the average per week, this way:

• 1st period class sold 60/4 = 15 calendars per week

,

• 2nd period class sold 123/4 = 30.75 calendars per week

In consequence the multiplication equation that represents this situation is:

15w + 30.75w = 183, where w is the number of weeks Mrs. Hawkins' classes sold calendars.

This is the solution to question 20:

We already know the average number of calendars that 1st and 2nd period classes sold per week. Now, let's calculate the average for 3nd 4th peiod classes, this way:

• 3rd period class sold 89 calendars in total

,

• 4th period class sold 126 calendars in total

Therefore, the average is:

• 3rd period class sold 89/4 = 22.25 calendars per week

,

• 4th period class sold 126/4 = 31.5 calendars per week

Summarizing, we have:

15 + 30.75 + 22.25 + 31.5 = 99.5 calendars was the average number sold by all her classes in a week.
